Welcome to the course “Human Rights and Democracy in Sub-Saharan Africa” (ARK227, 7,5 credits).

The course will be taught online via Zoom, using this link: https://du-se.zoom.us/j/68615873565

The Schedule is available in the Module “Course Information”. You can also find it here: Schedule ARK227.docx

The course consists of lectures and seminars. Most of the lectures are pre-recorded, except the combined Lecture and seminar on research methods in human rights (which will not be recorded).

Active participation in the Seminars is mandatory as it is considered part of the examination of the course. Before each seminar you are required to submit an assignment which will be discussed in the Seminar.

Compensation assignments for missed seminars are available for Seminars 1-3. You must first submit the regular assignment before you can do the compensation assignment.

There is no compensation assignment available for Seminar 4 (discussion of Final Papers), although there will be a second seminar opportunity in May (see the Schedule).

The Course Introduction takes place Tuesday 20 January 9:30 – 10:30.
